37 * The pid provider needs a small per thread scratch space,
38 * in the address space of the user task. This code is used to
39 * manage that space.
40 *
41 * High level design:
42 *
43 * To avoid serialization, this is a (mostly) lockless allocator. If
44 * a new page has to be allocated, the process's sprlock will be acquired.
45 *
46 * NOTE: The dtrace copyin/copyout code is still the shared code that
47 * can handle unmapped pages, so the scratch space isn't wired for now.
48 * * Each page in user space is wired. It cannot be paged out, because
49 * * dtrace's copyin/copyout is only guaranteed to handle pages already
50 * * in memory.
51 *
52 * Each page in user space is represented by a dt_ptss_page. Page entries
53 * are chained. Once allocated, a page is not freed until dtrace "cleans up"
54 * that process.
55 *
56 * Clean up works like this:
57 *
58 * At process exit, free all kernel allocated memory, but ignore user pages.
59 * At process exec, free all kernel allocated memory, but ignore user pages.
60 * At process fork, free user pages copied from parent, and do not allocate kernel memory.
61 *
62 * This is making the assumption that it is faster to let the bulk vm_map
63 * operations in exec/exit do their work, instead of explicit page free(s)
64 * via mach_vm_deallocate.
65 *
66 * As each page is allocated, its entries are chained and added to the
67 * free_list. To claim an entry, cas it off the list. When a thread exits,
68 * cas its entry onto the list. We could potentially optimize this by
69 * keeping a head/tail, and cas'ing the frees to the tail instead of the
70 * head. Without evidence to support such a need, it seems better to keep
71 * things simple for now.
